What Style of Timber Front Door Suits My Home?

Every home has its own character, and your front door should reflect that. It sets the tone and creates a lasting first impression while showcasing your home's design and personal style. When it comes to creating a warm, inviting entrance, few things compare to the beauty and craftsmanship of a timber front door. But which style best complements your home?

Classic and traditional charm

If your home features timeless details like gables, verandahs or ornate trims, a classic timber front door brings everything together. Think rich, solid hardwoods like mahogany or cedar paired with glass panels or leadlight designs. These doors exude elegance and add a sense of heritage to Federation, Victorian or Colonial-style homes.

Modern and contemporary simplicity

For sleek facades and minimalist architecture, a modern timber front door makes a bold yet refined statement. Opt for clean lines, oversized panels or pivot designs for an understated but impressive look. Finishes in natural stains or matte blacks highlight the wood’s grain while keeping the aesthetic sharp and sophisticated.

Coastal and hampton-inspired warmth

If your home embraces light, air and a relaxed feel, a coastal or Hampton-style door could be perfect. Lighter timbers, whitewashed finishes and simple panel designs enhance the breezy charm of seaside living. Add frosted or clear glass inserts to maximise natural light and create a welcoming, airy entrance.
